Oh right. You did do a lancer. It would be nice to see the other cerastuses (cerasti?) in different colours. Whether that be an existing house, or a custom scheme. That's what freeblades are for. (Im planning on painting a freevlade attached to the Grey Knights, so its got mostly their colours. And another one in entirely steampunk colours.)
lots of good tips as always, I think it would be good to see a more in depth video on the long multi week paint jobs. youtube is full of guides on how to paint quickly, that focus only on one technique, or do a handwavy summery of a big project so it is hard for people who haven't got to that level of painting to find inspiration. no clue if it will please the algorythm so it may not have a massive reach but it will for sure be filling a hole in the youtube hobby space
Really awesome video and model too Malinax is my favourite knight house and I'm still struggling with the right colour for the armour panels... More knight videos would be very nice :) Thanks!
The fact that the Cerastus knights can be so easily reposed is excellent stuff. If there's one knight type that will benefit from it it's the Lancer. Imagine that thing build in a full sprint, ready to put that lance through something and slam right through it. Malinax as a house never really appealed to me. I always like my knights being boldly coloured and covered in all kids of heraldry. Malinax is a bit drab looking. Might just be the way the Forge World team paints them though. The skeleton looks awesome. Looks like something one can do very quickly while looking great.
Awe man, this is it! The knight is beautiful mate. but more so, my journey to find the right tan/bone armour scheme is over. this is exactly what I've been looking for. Amazing work tyvm for your efforts and hard work.
Love it! You've really captured the heavy metal (not 'eavy metal) aspect of this giant mechanical beast, not to mention the perfect colours of House Malinax. And in a first for me, in all my time of being a Patreon member, I have all of the paints used........but not the model! Time for a swift online purchase methinks.
He's absolutely gorgeous, amazing tutorial. Indeed you don't like OSL, but maybe this time a subtil tint on the various generators of his shield would be really nice.
That dirty ass yellow looks so sic ! With the dust of the desert / dirt below. You do such good work man. I love learning from your channel thanks so much !
I don't know if this will make sense but here goes. I find this subtle approach to weathering (i.e. how you do the main colour on the armour) more 'Grimdark' overall. It looks a lot more realistic IMO. anyway, absolutely fantastic work
I've assembled and painted so many of these for Adeptus Titanicus at 8mm scale that's surreal seeing this in plastic at 28mm. I could never see using a lancer in 30k or 40k but maybe when the Acheron is released...
For lens' I LOVE metal mediums, I use Vallejo's and then the GW Technical gem paints. Works like a charm. I love all of the choices you made for this model.
Wish I’d seen this video a few days ago. I had a shocker painting my knight skeleton this weekend. I also stippled exhaust manifold over black but then applied acrylic washes (targor rage shade and nuln oil) and then ruined it even more by not glossing the armour before oil washing. Trying to come up with a way of salvaging it.
I don't know diddly squat about House Malinax, but that sort of fleshy tone to the panels is just crying out for some freehand tattoos in my mind. If I ever end up going for a knight army, I might try to do some simpler ones - American Trad/Sailor Jerry style with a 40k spin - and see what I can do.
Thanks for this Henry! I would love some more long form vids on knights. Also is there a reason why you’ve used 2/3 different brands of varnish? Are there properties drastically different? Would polyurethane work across it all?
Polyurethane would be fine across all. I have a big bottle that has lasted forever. For the other varnishes where it's just the effect that I'm after I currently favour the ammo mig ones.
fantastic! Looks amazing. I was wondering if you apply varnish between the oil filtering and shading and feathering with black. I assume the spirit reactivates the oilfiltering layer, or isnt that the case? Thanks!
Because you're using so little mineral spirits I didn't find there was any reactivation. But there's also no reason not to do a layer of varnish to be sure.
I think this is one of my favorite tutorials on the channel so far. Absolutely amazing. I love the outcome of the final model, and every technique used is something I want to try on a miniature myself at some point. I'd love to see you tackle more larger models like this one, this was a blast to watch!
I’d love a vid on a model that takes weeks. I haven’t painted my lord of skulls yet because it’s a centerpiece model. And I don’t want to do it an injustice
This is just fantastic. I am a newbie painter and although your videos do use airbrushes you are a great teacher and one of my favorite channels. I will be trying to duplicate this. Question about the skeleton. You mixed the paint for a dark metallic. Why not use the S75 Black Metal? What did mixing in the contrast paint give to the paint that you loved?
Ooh. I wonder how it would have come out with the red and green base coated then the dark metal stippled over the top so that the colour shows through.
I like it. Looks old, but we'll maintained. It's always weird to me that people make their marines and things look like they don't take care of their equipment. What kind of soldiers do that?
I'd love a "this is what the patreon videos are like" just as a taster... Now i'm not, maybe, likely to support over there but its an easier step to make if you have an example video of the sort of stuff you guys do there...
Polyurethane gloss is a bit tougher, so when you're using gloss for that purpose it's really good. If i was using gloss just to make something shiny then "normal" gloss would be fine.
No Culture of Paint on the history of Knights from RT to EPIC to 40K, and its potential future in the setting? All that aside, however, this looks great. Shame I don't have the room for one. I especially like how dark and greasy the skeleton of the Knight looks, I might do my Warsmith similarly.
“Hi everyone, it’s Henry here” isn’t how he introduces himself at in-person classes, but it’s pretty close.
This was just fantastic. Would absolutely be interested in a long form video on a model for sure!
Speaking personally I really enjoy the really in depth videos….keep up the good work 👍
I think for big models like this a multi part series would be worthwhile on here.
This looks great as is though really nice job
I really enjoy the long form videos. They're nice to play more than once while I'm painting. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Cult of Paint uploading is always a good time

Not seen the video yet but hitting like anyway as I know it’s going to be a banger as usual. ❤❤
I’d away love to listen and watch a weeks worth of painting videos. I listen while at work

I'd love to see you bring something up to display standard in a longer form project.
This is a fantastic tutorial and the best looking Xana/Malinax scheme I've seen. Definitely gonna be trying oil weathering on my new mechanicum
I was looking forward to this one.
Yes please to multi-part series painting to the Nth degree!
I’m learning so much from this channel and the videos are a joy to watch.
Absolutely amazing painting, Andy. I would love to see longer going projects here, as you suggest by the end of the video. Cheers.
Thanks Jose, it's Henry in this video though!
@@cultofpaint Ah, my bad. In my defense, I had watched Andy’s Farsight video right before this one. Sorry, Hernry!
And then I managed to misspell your name. Will the ignominy ever end? 😅
Fantastic as always!! Thank you!!
100% would watch a longer format video!
nice paintjob, absolutely love the posing :)
I would love an in depth Video. The black Metal skeleton Looks awesome. And the Matte black trim gives some amazing contrast
Thanks Stevie
Really awesome video and model too
Malinax is my favourite knight house and I'm still struggling with the right colour for the armour panels...
More knight videos would be very nice :)

Look stunning, love the skeleton colour
Got a Castigator to build so I'm definitely using your recipe for the skeleton. Going for house mordred so the red recipe will come in handy too
Henry... incredible 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Malinax my love ❤
Great video, enjoyed it a lot!
Followed this vid for my own lancer. Top notch tutorial and would love to see you take the kit to the n'th degree
Looks amazing as usual! I'd love to see a video (or series) of you really going to town on one model, over weeks. Great video!
Love it! You've really captured the heavy metal (not 'eavy metal) aspect of this giant mechanical beast, not to mention the perfect colours of House Malinax. And in a first for me, in all my time of being a Patreon member, I have all of the paints used........but not the model! Time for a swift online purchase methinks.
Need me to add a couple obscure paints???
Don't you dare....
He's absolutely gorgeous, amazing tutorial. Indeed you don't like OSL, but maybe this time a subtil tint on the various generators of his shield would be really nice.
Really incredible work. Thinking about using that verdigris metal recipe from the shield generator across the entire skeleton of one of my knights
Would definitely love to see a 2\3 hour video and see how dig down into the finer details
Looks amazing! Absolutely love the style.
Fantastic work. That armour colour turned out beautifully, I'll definitely be using that recipe if I ever start painting Blood Ravens.
That would be a nice shoulder colour wouldn't it
You sir.. are the Bob Ross of Warhammer!
That dirty ass yellow looks so sic ! With the dust of the desert / dirt below. You do such good work man. I love learning from your channel thanks so much !
I don't know if this will make sense but here goes. I find this subtle approach to weathering (i.e. how you do the main colour on the armour) more 'Grimdark' overall. It looks a lot more realistic IMO.
anyway, absolutely fantastic work
Thanks David
Damn, that aged brass look with the turquoise oil wash looks awesome.
Would look insane over a whole necron army
Great video! Thanks.
Absolute beaut 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would adore longer videos+
Ow happy happy joy joy 🎉🎉🎉

Those gem paints were great.
Bang up job.
Awesome!!!!

I also stippled exhaust manifold over black but then applied acrylic washes (targor rage shade and nuln oil) and then ruined it even more by not glossing the armour before oil washing. Trying to come up with a way of salvaging it.
If it's all dry, then hit it with a gloss coat, then matte, then start over.
Henry you should consider reading books for the Calm app! Amazing work as always, love the feathering of oils on the panels.💪💪🤙
A calm app sounds like a very good idea.
Wasn't expecting this
I don't know diddly squat about House Malinax, but that sort of fleshy tone to the panels is just crying out for some freehand tattoos in my mind. If I ever end up going for a knight army, I might try to do some simpler ones - American Trad/Sailor Jerry style with a 40k spin - and see what I can do.
Love it
Wonderful video. Very helpful. Will we ever get to see your armies? What do you do with one offs?
The one offs just go in a box. We cover our personal projects on here and over on Patreon.
Thanks for this Henry! I would love some more long form vids on knights. Also is there a reason why you’ve used 2/3 different brands of varnish? Are there properties drastically different? Would polyurethane work across it all?

Question about the skeleton. You mixed the paint for a dark metallic. Why not use the S75 Black Metal? What did mixing in the contrast paint give to the paint that you loved?
Thanks! Black metal was too blue for me for this. So I got the dirty brown silver I wanted and then darkened it.
Perfect !
I did freehand flames on my knights and now I wanna copy this and redo all my knights 😅
Sounds like you're about to start a second knight house!
8:18 Pretty sure it's Khorne Red from the looks of it.
Hi! Fantastic video! I'm a fan of oils after seeing your videos. May I ask wich 3 oils would you use to to filter the red panels?
a dark brown, a red, and probably an off white/tan colour
Thank you so much @@cultofpaint🙏
I love the video and want to do that paint scheme for my chaos knight, but I was curious on what you used to stick those armor panels onto the cork?
blu tack. always fresh new stuff each time.
Ooh. I wonder how it would have come out with the red and green base coated then the dark metal stippled over the top so that the colour shows through.
I think probably more control doing it this way around
@@cultofpaint just curious as to how it would look. Kind of like how you do hairspray chipping with the rusty underpainting.
Want to see an nth degree knight please 😁😁
Is the mix 2:1 for the Exhaust Manifold to Black Legion?
I like it. Looks old, but we'll maintained. It's always weird to me that people make their marines and things look like they don't take care of their equipment. What kind of soldiers do that?
That was more or less the intention, glad it reads that way.
Should be useful for me when I get to Forge World Xana Mechanicum
Plastic mechanicum would be very welcome
@@cultofpaint Hell yeah!
I'd love a "this is what the patreon videos are like" just as a taster... Now i'm not, maybe, likely to support over there but its an easier step to make if you have an example video of the sort of stuff you guys do there...
Here's an example. th-cam.com/video/7FXebYWB6T0/w-d-xo.html
Out of curiosity, what is the effective difference between vallejos polyurethane varnishes and their regular acrylic varnishes?
Polyurethane gloss is a bit tougher, so when you're using gloss for that purpose it's really good. If i was using gloss just to make something shiny then "normal" gloss would be fine.

Can you brush paint the Tamiya paints?
I don't like to. If you want to brush paint then check out Vallejo Model Colour range, they'll have very similar colours and names.
Such a great painting video but something about the music in the background is driving me insane I have no clue why it’s just making me rage
1:19 totally down with long video's!
Beautiful but, in my opinion, there is not enough wear, dirt, "combat" damage on the model.
I think I probably agree for my personal taste. But i do like the aged and well maintained look.
You had to turn off the lights to show the final reveal, seriously?
